Many professionals in Durrës work as freelancers or open an LLC. Each form has advantages but different tax obligations.

Freelancer / self-employed

Usually simpler to start, with personal declarations and lower admin costs. Suitable for steady but not very high income.

Registered business (LLC)

Offers greater credibility, company contracts and long-term tax planning. Requires more structured accounting and regular declarations.

How to decide

Evaluate income level, number of clients, need for employees and growth plan. Moving from freelance to business is easier when financial processes are already organized.

Professional help

An initial consultation shows the right legal form and real compliance cost, before you decide.
